Even though the Quik Interior Detailer says it is safe for leather, I would check Meguiarsdirect.com under "interior" for leather specific products for best results to be safe. They have several around same price-point.

This actually will work fine for most leather interiors. Most leather interiors in cars are "coated leather" and will actually work better with a cleaner like this one.

Not this product. This is used for a quick clean on the dash board area. I like it because it leaves a Matt finish not that high gloss like other products spray on swipe of that easy. For leather I recommend mothers "reflections" leather care. All the reflections care products I would highly recommend

Hi Bill - We have been working on a specialized leather cleaner and pre-conditioning product for the past 6 months and it is just now finishing up it's final round of testing. However, until we have it ready for sale on Amazon, we would recommend simply using some warm water with a small amount of mild soap and then allowing it to dry as you said. Please note that light colored leathers (especially jackets) may darken during both the cleaning and conditioning process, but this is normal and will begin to fade over time. THANKS!

I'd treat it like any good leather. Saddle soap to clean it. Use glove oil or leather conditioner if it seems dry..

No, try Weiman's leather cleaner and conditioner, which you can find at Walmart. Costs quite a bit less too.

It is better to use the cleaner first. The conditioner suggest you clean first with a damp cloth mixed with mild soap and warm water. We found the leather nova leather cleaner works better and faster.

This product is meant to moisturize so I would use saddle soap or a liquid leather cleaner if the item is truly dirty. Personally, I use either Lexol leather cleaner or Carr Day and Martin leather conditioning soap. Just be careful that your stitching is dry before applying the Obenauf's or it may weaken.

I have used both the Apple brand leather cleaner and conditioner on a black lamb skin bag. The results were amazing! I did test a small interior section first. - which I recommend doing anytime you clean a bag for the first time.

This cleaned my leather really well. Haven't tried the actual cleaner, but this stuff is great. If it's cheaper for more, then I definitely suggest going with this.

I bought it for worn spots on leather seats. It seems like it wipes off rather easy. It is similar to shoe polish that you mix and try to match the leather color. Shoe polish would be better for shoes/boots, I would think.

Hi there,Any natural fat grease will do the job read the label no chemicals as the will ruin leather.I personally use a piece of pork rind or lard it will smell at first but after couple uses is fine.Not to much frequent application is better,Good luck.

I don't clean it - but I would suspect a warm wash cloth could be used to wipe any stains on it or give it a quick refresher. There are leather fasteners on it so it could not be washed in a normal way.

Obenauf makes a leather cleaner too. It works great. I would use their silicone treatment too if your holster would be exposed to water or sweat.

I used it on my leather couch and it worked great....I first wiped lightly with very slightly damp cloth. Then sprayed liberally and wiped down the leather paying attention to any stubborn spots....once done and dry I buffed with a really soft old baby diaper cloth. It has stayed clean and shiny for months now. Hope this helps!

For water proofing try something like Leather milk #3. However, the best protection is elbow grease: wipe it dry when it gets wet, keep it clean, and use any quality leather conditioner every once in a while (see product instructions). The number of leather care products on Amazon alone boggles the mind.

This stuff is bleach on steroids. Personally, I would never think of using it on leather. Get some saddle soap instead. It is going to be slower, but it will not kill the leather. Oddly, furniture cream is a standard leather dressing in use by bookbinders. Alternatively, some non-petroleum based skin cream also works on leather. Do not use petroleum based stuff. It will kill leather. Leather is skin after all.

I use mine on an Italian leather sofa. I had a large pet stain (ashamed to admit) and this cleaned and conditioned the sofa beautifully. I can't imagine what would be different about the boots. It says on the bottle "condition, clean, polish and preserve all smooth finished leather"
